Selection Tool grabbing top layer rather than selected object in Layers panel
I’m aware that there are workarounds to this issue, but being something I have always done through habit, I don't like that this has suddenly changed on me. I reset my settings to default, but cannot find anything that goes back to how I used to select objects.
Okay into the issue... I usually would select objects in the Layer panel, I use overlapping objects of the EXACT same size, ones with pattern vectors and gaps and lower layers of gradient colours, and if I want to edit this colour layer or move it around my canvas, I would normally…

Gen AI Style Reference not working correctly
I let it generate a dragon. Then pointed to a style reference - a picture of an elephant. And then generated again. Now the dragon had a trunk.... A trunk is not a graphic / artistic style. A style reference should look at style rather than content / subject.

Fehler bei Bildern beim Ändern vom Dokumentfarbmodus RGB <=> CMYK (Bilder gehen kaput)
System: Windows 11 Pro, Illustrator 29.8.1
Ich habe folgendes Problem:
Ab und zu erstelle ich ein Plakat in A3 im CMYK-Modus für den Druck und benötige das identische Layout zusätzlich für eine Stele im RGB-Modus. Bisher konnte ich die Layoutinhalte aus dem CMYK-Dokument einfach kopieren und in ein RGB-Dokument einfügen – das funktionierte problemlos. Seit einiger Zeit jedoch werden die verknüpften Bilder dabei zerstört:- teilweise werden sie komplett schwarz,
- teilweise stark verfärbt,
- teilweise nur in Fragmenten dargestellt.
Manchmal passiert es auch, dass ein schwarzes Bild nach dem Bewegen des Illustrator-Fensters plötzlich wieder sichtbar wird.
Das gleiche Verhalten tritt auf, wenn…

White looks gray in Overprint Preview
The recent update to 29.8.1 now shows whites as grays in overprint preview. This changed feature now added leaving users unable to turn it off creates a massive problem when building anything containing white elements that are mixed or overprinting with or near grey elements. It is also a huge issue when sharing PDFs created in the new 29.8.1 with users who may not have the wherewithal to open their settings and start changing overprint settings.
Having been an artworker using Illustrator for over 20 years now, in which time I have seen some real clangers get through, but this…

Embedded Grayscale Image Inverts When Unembedded from Illustrator 29.8.1 and Opened in Photoshop
I’m encountering a consistent issue with Adobe Illustrator version 29.8.1 on Windows 10 (64-bit) involving grayscale images.
When I unembed a grayscale image from an Illustrator file and open it in Photoshop, the image appears inverted (as a negative — colors reversed). This only occurs when the embedded image is in grayscale mode. Color images do not seem to exhibit this problem.
This behavior did not occur in previous versions of Illustrator and seems to be specific to version 29.8.1.
Steps to Reproduce:
Open an Illustrator file (v29.8.1) with an embedded grayscale image.
Unembed the image.
Open the resulting file…

Can’t edit colors in a selection
When going to edit a color CMYK mixture the mixtures go blank and then it acts as if their is no fill color. I am trying to edit the CMYK mix to match the PMS mix and it keeps glitching after my latest update. You can see in my image that even though the color is slected it shows no color in the fill or a question mark.

The blue "new feature" dot on the Pencil tool isn't going away in a secondary toolbar.
I have a tiny little toolbar that is nothing but the Draw Above/Below/Inside indicator and the current tool. It'd just be the Draw Location widget but apparently you have to show the current tool in every toolbar. A lot of the time I work with the main toolbar off and just this up.
Switching to another tool and back doesn't clear the blue dot, even though I've checked the Pencil's settings and seen the new options, and the dot's vanished from the main toolbar.
The blue dot does go away if I close and restart Illustrator so it's not like…
